CNN "Reliable Sources" on full court press to discredit Rather now...
Edited on Sun Sep-23-07 10:19 AM by TankLV
Utterly disgusting.

Laura Ingram/Ingraham/I Don't Care Or Respect Her To Spell Her Name Correctly as the main guest - gets 90% of the talking time.

Rather is crazy
Rather doesn't have a case
No proof
Rather a flip flopper

Now their quoting Fux's Asshole Neil Cavuto

2. what a joke that show is
they are generally very adept at stretching credulity to avoid getting to the real issue. They are nothing but spin for the right wing propaganda machine.

3. Only television news source I watch is Bloomberg
haven't watched the MSM sources since 2004. There is absolutely nothing to be gained from them

Journalism is only entertainment as far as they are concerned

5. Are Howie and Laura avoiding talk of the BIG REVELATION in the lawsuit -- about ABU GHRAIB?
Rather reveals in the complaint that the Bush Regime was applying pressure to CBS to stay silent about their discovery of torture at Abu Ghraib.

Also, keep in mind that Howie "Reprehensible Sources" Kurtz is married to a GOP operative.

10. Reliable Sources is one of the most unreliable sources out there.

12. They have to , really...
If they don't ,it just reveals ALL of them to be the bought and paid for prostitutes they are. I still clearly recall watching Michael Moore on the various morning shows promoting Fahrenheit 9-11, and watching Katie Couric et al going after him as if he was a serial murderer. Again, I understood it; if they gave him the credibility and respect he warranted, it would expose the fact that if these people were doing their job, Michael wouldn't need to do it for them. Same situation here; when you're about to be exposed as a fraud, you do whatever it takes to discredit the person about to expose you.

13. Oh Good, more confirmation that the truth is surfacing
And the gatekeepers are now scared as to what how to backpedal on this with dignity. This should be fun to watch.
